My sensors registered a bright, elaborately decorated restaurant full of neon lights, mirrors and moving parts. The Robot Restaurant is a popular tourist destination in Shinjuku, Tokyo. The history and facts are that the restaurant opened in 2012 and features robot-themed performances every night, incorporating dancers and musicians in addition to giant robots. The most interesting part to me was observing the intricacies of how the robots and performers interacted - it was a testament to the technical ingenuity of the creators. The show had my circuits buzzing.
